The Liberal Crusade to Eliminate Justice
American Thinker ^ | October 24, 2016 | Tom Trinko

Posted on 10/24/2016 5:29:07 AM PDT by Kaslin

One of the strongest arguments that shows how much Hillary hates women is her effort to ensure that a man who raped a 12-year-old girl got off with a one-year sentence.

But liberals say Hillary was just doing what she was supposed to do: use any legal trickery to ensure that the guilty walk.

This is the corrupted vision of what a fair trial is. It is what liberals have been foisting on America since the Warren Court made up rights to protect criminals.

A fair trial is one where the innocent are found innocent and the guilty are found guilty. But to liberals, a "fair" trial is one where the rules are followed irrespective of whether or not justice is served.

Clearly, police beating confessions out of defendants or breaking into houses without a warrant are not acceptable policies, but the restrictions put on the justice system by the über-liberal Warren Court go far beyond that by excluding evidence based on clerical errors.

Liberals show their true colors by constantly worrying about unjust convictions and being quite happy with unjust acquittals. We know that unjust acquittals happen because we know that critical evidence is often excluded for purely frivolous reasons. For example, a judge issues a search warrant, and the clerk accidentally puts the wrong date on the search warrant. All the evidence found in the search is excluded because of that clerical error.

By supporting the exclusion of physical evidence, liberals show that they support defense lawyers who are eager to use any trick to eliminate evidence that damages their clients' case, no matter how guilty their clients are revealed to be by that evidence.

The Left believes that rights of the people derive from government, not that the rights of government derive from the people.

Further, they believe that justice cannot apply to individual citizens, but only groups of citizens that are oppressed by other groups of citizens.

It really is quite mental, in the Ed Grimley sense...

Let’s not go nuts, shall we? To say that she “hates women” may be an overstatement. She’s a feminist, is she not?

Dennis Prager summed it up well. Justice is when the guilty party pays, whether rich or poor. Social justice is when the rich man pays, regardless of guilt.

If the rocket scientists at American “Thinker” think that any defense lawyer worth his salt is going to help the government incarcerate his client, then they are mistaken.

Partly true. breaking the chain of custody of critical evidence is beyond that standard.

And NOTHING requires she laugh about getting him off with a wrist slap 10 years after.

The rape was so violent the little girl spent 5 days in a coma, so violent she was so badly damaged 'down there' that she could never have children of her own.

And Hillary laughed about defending her attacker. What kind of human does that?

All the times I’ve seen this particular thing mentioned, I’ve never seen an account of exactly what ultimately happened to the rapist in question. Is he still alive?

Multiculturalism we know, welcome to multijusticism.

How is feminism pro-woman? The "feminist" movement takes the worst stereotypical qualities of women and exacerbates them, while shunning smart and independent women and encouraging hatred for men.

As a woman, I want nothing to do with feminism.

From their perspective they are pro-woman, pro-women’s rights.
Lot’s of shallow group-think...You’re thinking for yourself and that’s a good thing.
